I’m still waiting on some apps I just keep thinking I would have had a better chance had I applied earlier.
JFCLetMeIn
18:18
But maybe that’s not true as a splitter
18:19
i applied in mid feb/ early march...but my appls just went complete now cz a document was missing in my case report...int gpa and 171 last...wondering if its late
JFCLetMeIn
18:19
It is late, yes.
18:20
@JFCLetMeIn: im in a similar boat to you as splitter/timing but sounded like you had much better LSAT, i would only R&R if you weren't happy about scholarship at those lower 14s and/or have goals bigger than standard bl
JFCLetMeIn
18:21
Hmm yeah
18:21
and of course you're comfortable waiting a year doing whatever you're doing rn
JFCLetMeIn
18:21
It does seem like schools are taking longer to decide on my app than other people’s that’s why I’m not sure if applying earlier would matter much
18:21
WAIT did bash hear back about UT
JFCLetMeIn
18:21
We don’t know yet!

@pug: does columbia rlly care about more then 3 lsat takes?
18:23
seems like splitters are waiting longer/have less predictable cycles, for me i just knew T6 wasn't likely to happen anyways and don't really mind missing out on the options those schools open up
but the money difference is obviously important and maybe waiting a year saves you over 50k in the long run
JFCLetMeIn
18:23
Yeah maybe I’m more focused on what hopes I had for ranking than actual outcomes…it’s just I want to do PI and the schools I got into are not the best for that
JFCLetMeIn
18:24
I should probably just be happy w what I got. I don’t really want to do this another year and applying earlier might not help me anyways
did Penn move up in anyone else's lawhub

18:26
Our GPAs are similar I just thought my LSAT would get better results than it did, guess it doesn’t make up for being below GPA much
QuixoticPowerfulAlligator
18:26
yes caterpillar
18:26
my top choice was berk to stay closer to home, unfortunate that they dont like splitters it seems. They're the best PI option prolly in lower t14 too
JFCLetMeIn
18:27
Yeah NYU is my top but I’ve been on hold and it’s not looking likely
JFCLetMeIn
18:27
I got berk WL
18:29
multiple T14 As is always a success though, maybe talk to them about the PI options they have and see if theres a path to what you want if you perform median-to above median as a law student
18:29
im not a PI guy so I haven't done much research beyond LST scanning
18:30
GL though, hope NYU comes through
